AA Motors LLC review

used vehicle purchase. I am very satisfied. Thanks

Andy is the owner of AA Motors. Andy is a fair and honest car dealer. He is very courteous and firm. I purchased a vehicle from AA Motors and a separate engine warranty for the vehicle. About 2 weeks after I purchased the vehicle, the vehicle had a loud noise coming from the engine. I informed Andy of the problem. I contacted the warranty company and informed the warranty company of the engine problem. Andy contacted the warranty company to assist me with getting the engine replaced. Andy contacted the repair shop to have the engine diagnosed and to have the engine replaced. Andy went above and beyond to provide quality customer service. Andy contacted the warranty company numerous times to ensure that the warranty was processed to replace the engine. I am very satisfied with the quality of service he provided to satisfy me. The repair shop replaced the engine. The vehicle is running properly. Thank you AA Motors/Andy for providing me with excellent customer service and ensuring that the vehicle was in good running condition!

1997 Nissan Sentra GXE review

After a new computer at 7k mile.. won my heart

What can you say bad about a standard tranny? I wish it had mode changes and cruise control back then! Our children outgrew it. So happy to be back in 2 again.

Matt Blatt Mitsubishi review

Worked with Mark Caramandi who made everything very easy!

Worked with Mark Caramandi who made everything very easy! What a great experience. Mark took the time to show us all the bells and whistles and made sure we were comfortable with the vehicle. Matt was also great in the finance department and worked with us. Highly recommend this dealership. Thanks!

1997 Nissan Sentra XE review

The cars fantasca only for 20 years

This car has outlasted my other 3 cars it functions beautifully its great on gas u can get great mileage on this car for sure this car will run a long time trust me. Just change the oil & get a tune up when necessary this car will run forever . Its a very safe car. I've been hit 4 to 5 times and the car maybe looks ugly but it's a sound body car......it has steel casing in front of it so when the person hit me it didn't damage any of the components inside the car that's the best thing ever It doesn't have a bumper anymore but she's OK so it's a great car to have. I would recommend buying this car if you had to buy any use card this is the one to buy
